The end of this post mortem was a bit handwavy TBH. I feel like they didnt dig deep enough, and the problem was the backup VIP, not the two processes crashing at once and the backup VIP.
I think by still allowing the backup VIP to run on the sync replica the same mistake is being repeated, there will always be the possibility of a situation where the VIP cannot be moved when promotion is required. That replica should be doing nothing but sitting there waiting to save the day, and if they want the backup VIP to be highly available they should provision 2 async replicas.
